Economics of desalination for three plant sizes
TL;DR: In this article, the economics of three different plant sizes were compared for three different types of plants: small plants with a capacity below 100 m3/d, medium-scale plants having a capacity between 100 and 200 m3 /d, and large plants with capacity above 200 m 3/d.
